“In every life we have some trouble
But when you worry you make it double
Don't worry, be happy.”
     

 

Bobby McFerrin

WELFARE

When you’re on top of the perch, it’s fine  -  but none of us knows

what life will throw at us, and there will probably be times when the

perch feels a bit wobbly and we need a helping hand to stop us falling off.

Sometimes, it can be difficult to know where to look for support.

 

One purpose of our Club is to provide “welfare” help, so please don’t be wary
of asking for it  -  either for yourself or on behalf of another Club member.
There are several ways you can go about it.

 

Each Committee Member acts as a Welfare Officer for a particular geographical area.

We don’t pretend to be experts, but we do try to give support appropriate to individual

members and their needs.  A phone call to the Club number, or a word in a Committee Member’s ear will start the ball rolling for a visit or a chat.  Even a little help can make a big

difference and, as you might expect, all of our welfare activity is in the strictest confidence.

 

In other directions, this website has contact points for a range of issues

at Barclays centrally;  on the Financial side, various organisations

can provide grants or advice;  others can offer practical help

and guidance with Physical or General needs.  

 

Browse through them all, and take your pick.

But whatever you do, don’t just sit and worry!
